Compression will be about 10.5 to 1. Anybody else do this? Not a race engine. Will be going in my 70 D100 truck. Looks like the eyebrows around the intake valves will have to be ground down for piston clearance. Appreciate any feedback! Last edited by dmerc; 03/29/10 08:24 AM.

It's a bit of work but it can be done for open chambered heads. Just ask 383man about his 11 second 440 he did this to.
